CJ Leslie is officially on the roster til Jan. 7th with the New York Knicks. Leslie signed for the rookie minimum ($490,180) in a partially guaranteed deal. if he's on the roster after the 7th of January the deal becomes fully guaranteed and he gets paid for the whole year. Leslie has a qualifying offer that if picked up will give him a salary next year of $1,016,482 guaranteed.

oh for real, i heard that it was for training camp b4...i guess they upgraded that offer

Telfair, AJ Price, Booby Gibson, Udrih and Nolan Smith are PG's that are still out there.

Telfair not so much

I like AJ Price of all of them he's at least gotten significant playing time last season whereas the rest of this group has not.

Not against Bobby Brown tho. I mean impressed Knicks with 2 workouts.

We need PGs who can score off penetration. Round 1 Ray gave that to us and we realistically should have swept Boston, we lose in 6 to Indy without it. Looks like Brown can do that (at least against Euro League talent)

Am I missing anyone?No. We said GOODBYE to KIDD, NOVAK, CAMBY , SHEED, RICHARDSON, WHITE, THOMAS and COPELAND...that's 8 players. As much as I liked Copeland he was not worth 6 million over 2 years with the needs we had not at PF. We now have MWP SF, Bargnani PF AMARE PF MELO PF and maybe C.J. Leslie or Tyler there. WE NEED A POINT GUARD...hello!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah I did also.... after we gave MWP the rest of the exemption I thought we were going to lose KMart.

Big time signing in my opinion. Now we have a physical body to back up TC at the 5, but can also start at the 4 if we need to go big in a series. With guys like MWP, Shumpert, KMart, etc we should be able to bang with the best and imposer our will on our opponents in a series.

Hope we get a rematch with Indiana..... if JR shows up this time I like our chances.

Kenyon Martin is the best resigning of the summer for the Knicks .. GM Grunny still gets a C minus for his offseason decision-making.
Grunny wouldve got a Failure if Lakers didnt amnesty Meta World Peace, who waited 14 yrs to become a Knicks...
